At first, I was slow about ordering these, mostly because I was unsure about the look. When not connected to the strap, they do look a bit like grease nipples on the guitar. But, they are so easy to use, feel very secure when attached. They are also quiet, as they don't rattle around when connected. I'm very happy.
Pros:
- Price, cheaper than most strap locks
- Excellent design, the washer/nut to attach the connector to the strap connects from the inside... so even if it came loose, the connector is still connected through the strap. It is a very smart solution. The connectors are very compact on the strap, and yet very easy to operate.
- Intuitive to install and operate. Push it on, pull it off. Perfect.
Cons:
- I checked with all the straps we had here, and in each case the button holes were too small for these strap locks. I had to cut the holes to make them large enough to accommodate them.
I'm very glad I found these strap locks.
